ASTM A952/A952M-02
Historical Standard: ASTM A952/A952M-02 Standard Specification for Forged Grade 80 and Grade 100 Steel Lifting Components and Welded Attachment Links
SUPERSEDED (see Active link, below)
ASTM A952 / A952M
1. Scope
1.1 This specification covers the requirements for forged alloy steel lifting components and welded coupling and master links for Grade 80 and Grade 100 alloy chain slings as described in Specification A 906/A 906M.
1.2 Two grades of components and welded links are covered:
1.2.1 Grade 80.
1.2.2 Grade 100.
1.3 This specification is a performance standard. Other standards apply to use of these products. Some of these standards are: OSHA 1910.184, ASME B30.10, and ASME B30.9.
1.4 The values stated in either inch-pound or SI units are to be regarded separately as standard. Within the text, the SI units are shown in brackets. The values stated in each system are not exact equivalents; therefore, each system shall be used independently of the other. Combining values from the two systems may result in nonconformance with the specification.
2. Referenced Documents (purchase separately) The documents listed below are referenced within the subject standard but are not provided as part of the standard.
